Well, let me tell you, that in drawing these cute fruit it became so very clear even in the most basic face doodle, eyebrows are just so very very important! So whether you are focused on the cuteness of your craft, or your own beauty routine, eyebrows should never be ignored!

Eyebrows are a vital aspect of women’s makeup. From shaping to coloring, numerous processes are used to beautify the eyebrows. Eyebrow coloring has been a part of women’s lives for a long time. Its application has been in practice since 3500 B.C. Today, eyebrow coloring is popularly termed as ‘eyebrow tinting.’ It is a process that helps to apply semi-permanent colors to the eyebrows. Women use this process to enhance their appearance and add a certain charm to their faces. Some even use tinting to help them cover the thinner spaces within the eyebrows. The fact is that eyebrow tinting does help define and shape the brows such that eyebrow pencil and eyebrow makeup need not always be applied.

The duration of the color-stay depends on the application, and the tinting process consumes anywhere from 15 to 20 minutes. Your beautician ensures that before the application, your eyebrows are cleaned thoroughly. The color mix and time of application depend on the results you desire.

Adorable Doodle Pears Boxes To Stack As Art!

Sometimes it is the DIY projects with just the simplest materials, and of course recyclables to boot, that are truly the most special! And these fun stackable doodle pear boxes are truly the proof in the pudding, right? It all started out because I'm doing an instagram challenge called #colormegrow at my @sara.rivka.dahan account, and this week we were working on a project using just red, black and white. The challenge will last for at least 3 months, and I'm planning to do boxes every week, so that at the end I'll have a nice tower! Each week, depending on which color or colors the challenge dictates, I'll be painting stripes on little recycled food boxes (like tea boxes and one sleeve cookie boxes, toothpaste boxes, etc.) and then turning that into something. Last week I made landscapes from my blue boxes, and this week, well, the challenge subject was pears and today is Tu B'Shevat, so a fun pattern with doodle pears was an obvious choice! Of course, if you like my pears, you can use this idea on canvas or paper, it would be fun art in any form.  Okay, lets do it, shall we?

Wishing everyone all the very best, good health, and looking forward to reconnecting in two weeks!
